A legendary attraction
Legend has it that Toompea Hill is the burial mound of the legendary Estonian King Kalev and it has always maintained a special place in the country's culture. This is reflected in the range of important and gorgeous buildings that lay on top of the hill.

In addition to the imposing Toompea Castle, the hilltop is home to the magnificent Gothic Toomkirk, or Dome Church, as well as the Russian-constructed Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. Both stake strong claims to being the most beautiful building in Tallinn and both are within walking distance of each other on Toompea Hill.

Regal views
Visitors who have travelled to the top of Toompea Hill are offered one of the finest views in Tallinn, if not Europe, at the Kohtuotsa and Patkuli viewing platforms. From these high vantage points onlookers are offered a spectacular view of Tallinn that has been aptly named the King's vista.

After soaking in the sights of Toompea Hill guests at the Radisson Blu Sky Hotel, Tallinn will relish the opportunity to relax in classy accommodation. A range of superior services ensure that a stay the hotel perfectly complements a trip to the stunning city
